We are looking for a cool designÂ to highlightÂ our "New Blood Drive."

The logo will be used to publicize a traditional blood drive in conjunction with a political campaign (Charles Lewis for Portland City Council -- http://www.CharlesLewis.com).Â The overall idea is to highlight the need for "new blood" in City Hall by conducting an actual blood drive.

The twist is that donors will receive a coupon for a free pint of beerÂ when they donateÂ a pint of blood, hence the catch phase "We'll match you pint for pint!"

We're hoping to have a vintage looking design similar to the links below.Â The overall idea would be to have anÂ old timey, vintage looking guy (should be male)Â with an I.V. in his arm (and blood bag), and a beer in the other arm.Â Â We really like the old timey, cool colors with gradations like in the pictures, etc.

We used another SitePoint contest logo for one of our new program ideas (see http://www.CommunityCorps.org) and are looking forward to another round of great ideas.Â We're offering an additional $100 if the winning design is from a PortlandÂ resident (but we will pick the best design regardless of location).
